What to order
Cusco is The Grand's Peruvian restaurant — buffet for breakfast and lunch near the waterpark pool, à la carte for dinner. It's less crowded than Habibi or Le Château but draws consistent praise for surprising authenticity. For dinner, approach it sharing-style: order multiple smaller plates rather than one main. The ceviches and Shrimp Tocu Tocu are the dishes guests name most often; sea bass and scallops are the top seafood mains.
- Shrimp Tocu TocuThe most-mentioned dish in Cusco reviews — creamy shrimp with corn and potato cake; the signature starter and the first order at Cusco.
- CevicheGuests specifically call out the ceviche as notably authentic for an all-inclusive kitchen; order it first to judge the kitchen's freshness and set the tone for the meal.
- Sea BassThe recommended dinner main; clean, well-prepared, and the safest à la carte anchor if it's your first time at Cusco.
- ScallopsCited alongside sea bass as the top seafood order; share between two as a course before committing to mains.
- Seafood SoupThe warm starter with bold broth; the recommended opening course before ceviche if you want something substantial before lighter cold plates.
Breakfast and lunch are buffet. Dinner is à la carte — sharing-style ordering recommended: multiple smaller plates yield a better Peruvian experience than a single entrée.
